Dr Landa Magdalene Love – Behaviour Change Coaching in Looe

Bio

I am an integrative holistic coach, researcher, and facilitator with over two decades of experience at the intersection of wellbeing, leadership, and social impact.

I support professionals, leaders, and changemakers across purpose-driven sectors—including health, housing, education, and other third sector initiatives—to build resilience, reconnect with their values, and lead meaningful, balanced lives.

With a PhD in Sociology/Social Psychology, an MSc in Marketing, and Fellowship status with the Chartered Institute of Marketing (FCIM), I bring a rare combination of academic insight, strategic experience, and professional trauma-informed coaching expertise, with a background spanning senior communications roles, higher education, and holistic wellbeing. I am also certified in trauma therapy, integrative health and wellbeing coaching, and coaching and mentoring. I have a deep understanding of both the external demands and internal challenges professionals face, allowing me to support clients with both depth and sensitivity.

I offer two complementary strands of coaching:

• Executive Coaching for purpose-driven professionals in leadership or transition—focusing on clarity, integrity, and sustainable high performance.

• Personal Coaching for individuals who want to move beyond burnout, disconnection, or “success without fulfilment” to live and work with deeper purpose and wellbeing.

My approach is integrative and values-led, drawing on social psychology, somatic awareness, systems thinking, and reflective inquiry. Whether in a one-to-one session or a group setting, I provide a grounded, confidential space where clients can reconnect with what matters most and take aligned, courageous action.

I am also available to design and deliver coaching-led wellbeing programmes within organisations, and welcome invitations to collaborate on staff development, reflective practice, and embedding wellness within purpose-led cultures.

Specialisms: • Executive & Leadership Coaching • Resilience & Burnout Recovery • Authentic Career Transitions • Values-Based Decision-Making • Somatic & Embodied Coaching • Strategic Communication & Ethical Messaging • Workplace Wellness Programs • Coaching in Third Sector & Housing Contexts • Mindful communication and values-led messaging • Trauma-Informed Practice

Experience

I’m an EMCC-accredited integrative holistic coach, executive coach, communications strategist, and educator with over two decades of experience supporting professionals and purpose-driven organisations to thrive with clarity, resilience, and integrity.

My work bridges the worlds of coaching, trauma-informed wellness, communications strategy, and leadership development. I specialise in helping professionals and leaders in housing, health, education, and other mission-driven sectors build authentic, sustainable lives and careers—without burning out.

Whether you're navigating a high-pressure role, seeking deeper purpose, or leading cultural change within your organisation, I offer grounded, integrative support shaped by a rare blend of lived, academic, and professional experience.

My services include: • Executive coaching (1:1 and team-based) • Resilience and wellbeing strategy for organisations • Leadership development and values-alignment • Trauma-informed personal coaching and career transition support • Communications and CSR guidance aligned with purpose • Bespoke workshops and wellness programmes

My approach combines:

PhD-level insight into selfhood, relational ethics, and systemic wellbeing

Chartered marketing expertise (FCIM) with a strong background in strategic messaging, stakeholder engagement, and socially responsible business

Accredited health and wellbeing coaching, trauma therapy, and somatic practices for deep emotional support and integration

I've supported housing leaders, educators, social entrepreneurs, and corporate changemakers—along with individuals navigating personal transitions—towards more meaningful and balanced lives.

My style is warm, intelligent, and grounded. I hold a safe and confidential space while also offering robust structure and practical insight. My clients describe me as someone who “gets” the complexity of their role or life, while helping them reconnect with what truly matters.

Key background:

PhD in Sociology/Social Psychology (University of Plymouth), awarded “Thesis of the Year”

MSc in Marketing with a focus on CSR

Fellow of the Chartered Institute of Marketing (FCIM)

EMCC Practitioner Coach (EIA20251576)

Level 5 diplomas in Integrative Coaching, Women’s Health Coaching, and Trauma-informed Practice

Former tutor, examiner, and curriculum designer for the Oxford College of Marketing (CIM Centre)

Published author and experienced university lecturer in wellbeing, ethics, and personal transformation

Group Housing Board member at Sanctuary Housing

This path has allowed me to work in many forms—as a director of a social venture, an educator, a therapist, a marketer, and a leader. Each role has deepened my capacity to support others in navigating pressure, aligning with their values, and stepping into work that feels both impactful and alive.

I now combine private coaching with consultancy, and I’m open to part-time in-house or contract-based roles where I can support organisational wellbeing, team culture, or leadership development from within.

If you’re seeking meaningful change—whether personally, professionally, or across your organisation—I’d love to explore how we could work together.
